Selection Guide

Select Dryer Fabric by Position and Operating Conditions

A dryer fabric should not be purchased from dimensions and permeability alone. Each dryer group has different sheet strength, ventilation, temperature, contamination and mechanical risks, so structure, seam and cleanability must be compared position by position.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dryer Fabric Selection FAQ

What data is needed to select a dryer fabric?

Provide the exact dryer group and position, paper grade and basis weight, operating speed, fabric dimensions, permeability, seam requirement, hood conditions, cleaning method, and the current fabric's contamination, guiding or wear history.

How do flat-yarn, round-yarn and spiral dryer fabrics differ?

Flat-yarn designs generally emphasize sheet support and surface contact, round-yarn designs balance stability, permeability and wear, while spiral structures are often considered where an open, easy-to-clean design suits the position. Final selection depends on the dryer group and sheet requirements.

Is higher dryer fabric permeability always better?

No. Permeability must match the position, ventilation system, sheet support, speed and contamination load. Excessive openness can reduce support or disturb local air behavior, so a fabric should not be selected from one permeability value alone.
